A court in Romania on December 11 rejected a request by influencer Andrew Tate to return assets that were seized during investigations into the case in which he is charged with human trafficking, rape, and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women. The Bucharest Tribunal's decision can be appealed within 48 hours. Tate's lawyer, Eugen Vidineac, told AP he has applied to appeal. The decision comes nearly a year after Tate, his brother Tristan, and two Romanian women were arrested near Bucharest. Romanian prosecutors formally indicted all four in June. They have denied the allegations.
